Kingston College students have delivered a major large-scale art installation for Unilever new UK headquarters, Sunlight House, through a live Future Skills brief.

Working alongside Kingston University, students responded to a real-world design challenge set by Unilever, creating artwork that celebrates Kingston’s history, culture, architecture and natural environment. The winning pieces are now installed across the ground floor reception area, on display to employees, visitors and the wider public.

Supported by Overbury and Perkins&Will the seven-month project gave students invaluable hands-on experience, from concept development and client presentations through to large-scale production and installation. Students worked to professional standards, responded to feedback from industry leaders and gained insight into creative careers in practice.

This collaboration highlights the power of partnerships between education and industry, helping to develop the next generation of creative talent while enriching a major new workplace with meaningful, locally inspired art.
